Xinjiang internment parallels Holocaust mechanisms despite fewer mass deaths

Evidence

Although the distinctions between present-day Xinjiang and Nazi Germany are dramatic, particularly with regard to mass deaths and mass punishment, the parallels cannot be ignored.

To date, there is little evidence of mass deaths in China, but torture and ethnic cleansing and its concomitant project of “cultural genocide” have been widely documented. — Khaled A.
